BACKGROUND: Pursuant to Resolution No. 99 -410, the Board of County Commissioners has determined that attendance at functions or activities that are of educational, professional or trade serves as a valid public purpose, provided that said functions reasonably relate to Collier County matters. Florida Statute 163.356(3)(d) - known as "Creation of community redevelopment agency" — states: `At any time after the creation of a community redevelopment agency, the goveming body of the county or municipality may appropriate to the agency such amounts as the governing body deems necessary for the administrative expenses and overhead of the agency....' Florida Statute 163.387(6) - known as "Redevelopment trust fund" — states: `Moneys in the redevelopment trust fund may be expended from time to time for the following purposes, when directly related to financing or refinancing of redevelopment in a community redevelopment area pursuant to an approved community redevelopment plan: (a) Administrative and overhead expenses necessary or incidental to the implementation of a community redevelopment plan adopted by the agency.' Collier County Ordinance 2000 -42 establishes the Redevelopment Trust Fund and appoints the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) as the governing body of the Community Redevelopment Agency and the trustee of the Redevelopment Trust Fund. CONSIDERATIONS: Annually the Local Advisory Board recommends the CRA Board approve travel and training funding for CRA staff to further their professional development. This year's Florida Brownfields Association's Annual Conference is October 26 - 28, 2008 in St. Pete Beach, Florida. Two of the CRA staff and Ms Marjorie Student - Stirling of the County Attorney's office desire to attend. Ms Student - Stirling serves as the CRA legal counsel and would benefit from the professional training received at this conference. The maximum cost is approximately $546 per person for registration ($350 /person) /lodging ($98 /night) and approximately $200 for group mileage and parking (carpooling). Actual cost per person will vary depending on group travel, number days attended and times of departure from and return to Naples.
